Picnic Comes on Apace
And Cars are Too Few
An S. O. S. call for cars was this
afternoon sounded by E. B. Ever
ette, of the Methodist Sunday school
picnic committee. The committee is
confronted with the likelihood of a
great crowd of expectant youngsters
assembling next Friday morning, all
eager to get to the picnic grounds
for a day of fun, and finding no
means of transportation for more
than a few of them. A few days
ago the committee sent out letters to
a number of citizens requesting all
of them to assist with their cars, but
so far the number heard from is far
from sufficient.
“The response to our appeal has
been far below expectations,” said
Mr. Everette. “With the combined
Methodist Sunday schools, a large
number of cars will be needed—and
we can use two or three good trucks,
too, for they will carry a consider
able number of youngsters each. If
there are any other citizens who
will agree to furnish cars for this
occasion, please let them notify me
at telephone 38.”
